Summit Europe 2017: The Key to Great Teams — Understanding the Human Operating System »OS H«

How do organizations become adaptive, agile, and resilient? What fosters trust and makes people feel safe to speak their minds?

Stefan Knecht from it-economics – a 2016 Best Workplaces in Germany award recipient – argues the master key lies in a social operating system used for over 300,000 years: the human operating system »OS H«.

Recent findings from behavioral, cognitive, and organizational sciences help to better understand parts of this system – like what makes humans tick and how groups successfully form and perform.

Even the best tools and technology will only get you part of the way to building world-class teams and agile transitions: at the social workplace, empathy, trust and psychological safety make the difference: manage systems — not people.
